UK numbers: context and signals
Unsure about a UK caller? Find fresh community reports to judge unknown calls or texts. In London, Manchester, Birmingham, Edinburgh or Glasgow you’ll see legitimate callbacks (banks, clinics, deliveries) alongside waves of automated or misleading contacts. Area codes like 020, 0161, 0121, 0131 are not reliable for location due to portability/VoIP — use them as context, not proof.
What to do: if unsure, return calls via the official number on the company site/app, check in‑app notices, and don’t share one‑time codes. Use device filters/blocks and, if available, carrier tools (EE, O2, Vodafone, Three). Share a short factual note here so others can decide faster.

I received a recorded message from 07785051731 claiming to be Visa and warning that £800‑£900 would be withdrawn from my account, urging me to call them.
They pretended to be from Sky, which they obviously aren't.
Supposedly wanted to discuss a job offer with me, so I hung up.
They claimed I owed a parking fine that should have been paid yesterday, gave no registration number—clearly a scam.

Another scam number appears; I've had five different mobiles ring me each day this week without answering. I’m fed up!

Regarding energy bills, the call was blocked.
The number was unrecognised, marked as spam, and I blocked it without answering.
